Hi, I am relatively new to synthmaker. I've been using it for about a week and I really like it. But I was wondering if you could add multiple selection functionality just for moving objects, because it is very awkard to move multiple objects around in the environment because I have to select each object individually and then move it, instead of holding down the Left-Click and selecting everything I want to move (or selecting everything I want to move with Shift+Click). Thx.
Oh and can you put the lp89 function (advanced mode) in the tools menu or toolbar. Because everyone I show this program to is like, "there's nothing in it," and then I have to explain it. Also, probably most people who download this program aren't going to come to the forum and just think that there is nothing in this program.

fubus, thanks for your comments.
I understand your point in wanting to move multiple components together, you're not the only person requesting that feature. I can see the importance of it specially when at the moment you dont have prepared modules available and you probably use a flat schematic, for example, if you had an Area module, it would take less space than inserting 4 Float Edit components with an Area converter.
One thing you can do for now if you have the patience, is create your own modules and keep all schematics small by making them very hierarchical, it makes them easier to understand too.
In my latest internal version I have a button in the toolbar to get into advanced mode. If you're interested in the latest internal versions which are not ready for release you can get in touch with me on MSN : [email removed] and I'll make it available to you ( or anyone else ).

Yeah, I always try and make my designs very logical and easy to follow with as few overlapping as possible. Actually, I was reorganizing the example program when I realized I couldn't multi-select, because the way the example is laid out makes it very hard to figure out what is going on. If you want the reorganized layout that I am doing right now, I can send it to you when I am finished.
Oh, and I also just noticed that I can't get the copy/paste functions to work. For example I reorganized the internal layout of the lowpass filter and I wanted to replace the other lowpass filter in the main layout with the reorganized one. But when I select the reorganized lowpass module and try to copy it (with CTRL-C or with the copy in the edit menu) it won't let me.

I'm very interested in any schematic you send me, even if it doesnt work. I can learn a lot by looking at what other people are trying to do.
You can also find me on IRC chatroom #synthmaker on the EFnet server.
